And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself; . . . (King
James Bible, Daniel 9:26)
After the sixty-two sevens, the Anointed One will be cut off and will have nothing. (New International
Bible, Daniel 9:25)
. . . seven of those seventy will pass till the appearance of one anointed, a prince...after
the sixty-two have passed, the anointed prince will be removed, and no one will take his part.
(Oxford Study Bible, Daniel 9:25, p. 926)
Some Bibles actually translate the original Greek words into the English word "excommunication"
pertaining to Jesus and His disciples. Most of the people lived in fear of the Pharisees, knowing
that they, too, might be "cast out" or excommunicated from the church. Jesus was already a marked man when He was born in the meridian of time. Many innocent children
were murdered in Herod's effort to kill Him. Not only was He persecuted, smitten and tried by the
law of the gentiles, He was also rejected "of His own." 
7  He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8  He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation?  for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9  And he made his grave with the wicked... Isaiah 53:7 - 9
